THE  COLLEGE  BUILDINGS 


The  Woman  s  College 

Frederick,  Maryland. 


isitors  who  have  been  conducted  through  the 
institution  almost  invariably  express  surprise 
at  the  extent  of  our  buildings  and  the  complete¬ 
ness  of  our  equipment.  The  six  buildings  now  in 
use  by  the  institution  cannot  adequately  be 
shown  in  a  single  picture,  nor  can  all  points  of  interest  be 
included  in  such  a  work  as  this. 

But  in  the  hope  of  giving  a  clearer  idea  of  the 
institution  than  can  be  done  alone  by  a  descriptive 
catalogue,  we  present  this  book  of  views,  hoping  it  may 
stimulate  interest  sufficient  to  follow  an  examination  of  its 
pages  by  a  careful  study  of  the  catalogue,  or  better  still, 
by  a  personal  visit. 

Any  further  information  not  furnished  by  catalogue 
or  booklet  will  be  gladly  supplied  if  inquiries  are  addressed 
to  the  President, 

Joseph  H.  Apple, 

Woman’s  College, 

Frederick,  Md. 


THE  PRESIDENT  IN  HIS  OFFICE 


A  High  Standard. 


hile  the  college  offers  courses  in  College  or 
Preparatory,  in  Music  or  Art,  in  Expression, 
Domestic  Science  or  Physical  Culture,  it 
maintains  in  each  and  all  a  high  standard. 

This  has  been  made  possible  by  a  faculty  of 
trained  teachers  working  with  a  body  of  earnest  students. 
Each  teacher  is  expected  to  be  both  an  authority  and  an 
inspiration.  Our  teachers  are  constantly  supplementing 
their  training  by  vacation  study  under  the  best  auspices  at 
home  and  abroad.  Students  are  thus  given  the  benefit  of 
the  best  that  can  be  obtained,  and  are  stimulated  to  be 
satisfied  with  nothing  less  than  the  best  in  their  own  work. 


THE  ENTRANCE— EAST  HALL 


Social  Training. 


Jcarcely  less  important  in  the  young  woman’s 
preparation  for  life  is  the  high  social  standard 
we  strive  to  maintain.  The  mental  training  of 
the  college  woman  makes  it  imperative  that 
she  have  training  as  well  in  the  forms  and 
usages  of  good  society.  Her  power  is  greatly  enhanced 
when  to  her  mental  vigor  is  added  the  distinctive  grace 
and  charm  of  the  cultured,  well-bred  woman.  This 
important  phase  of  our  work  is  made  definite  and  effective 
in  a  department  presided  over  by  the  Lady  Principal. 


THE  PARLORS 


Religious  Influences. 


highest  and  best  place  is  to  be  accorded  to 
g  religious  influences  of  the  college.  These 
g  positively  Christian  and  helpful.  The 
'ort  is  made  to  have  them  pervade  every 
phase  of  the  activity  of  teachers  and  students. 
And  since  we  believe  them  to  be  of  deepest  significance, 
we  aim  to  make  them  of  most  lasting  benefit.  They  find 
definite  expression  in  and  through  theworkings  of  theYoung 
Women’s  Christian  Association,  which  serves  as  a  medium 
for  individual  study  and  training  in  religious  work. 


COLLEGE  HALL 


A  Growing  Library  and  a 
Trained  Librarian. 

Indispensable  to  thorough  work  in  any  depart¬ 
ment  is  our  large  and  growing  library  of  well 
selected  books,  carefully  indexed  and  made 
readily  accessible  to  students  by  a  trained 
librarian. 


THE  LIBRARY 


Scientific  Laboratories. 


N  adequate  number  of  laboratories  is  provided, 
equipped  with  sufficient  apparatus  for  doing 
thorough  work  along  modern  lines.  Biology, 
Physics,  and  Chemistry  each  has  its  separate 
laboratory.  Only  the  last  named  is  shown  in  the  illus¬ 


tration. 


CHEMICAL  LABORATORY 


A  Gymnasium  and  a  Physical  Director. 


o  maintain  a  healthy  body  as  the  necessary 
basis  for  a  sound  mind,  we  have  a  well  equipped 
gymnasium  and  an  athletic  field,  both  under 
the  supervision  of  a  competent  physical 
director.  The  gymnastics  occupy  the  period 
from  about  December  1st  to  April  1st.  Of  course  we 
require  the  regulation  gymnasium  suit  and  conduct  the 
work  according  to  the  latest  and  best  methods.  Physical 
measurements  at  the  beginning  indicate  the  course  best 
suited  to  each  individual,  and  at  its  close  show  the  results 
obtained. 


THE  GYMNASIUM 


Athletics. 


rior  to,  and  after  the  gymnasium  work,  physical 
exercise  is  obtained  by  means  of  Tennis, 
Croquet,  Basket-Ball  and  Field  Hockey.  The 
campus  is  supplemented  by  an  athletic  field — 
one  of  the  finest  to  be  found  anywhere.  Teams 
are  organized  in  the  several  sports  and  healthy  rivalry 
leads  to  tournaments,  and  class  or  college  contests. 


THE  TENNIS  COURTS 


The  College  Farm. 


he  athletic  field  is  located  on  the  college  farm 
of  thirty  acres,  just  ten  minutes  walk  from  the 
buildings.  This  is  designed  later  to  be  the 
permanent  home  of  the  college.  Meanwhile  it 
supplies  fresh  milk  and  vegetables  for  the 
table,  and  also  serves  as  an  excellent  outlet  for  the 
exuberant  spirits  of  college  girls. 


THE  ATHLETIC  FIELD 


Health. 


UR  location  was  chosen  on  account  of  its 
healthfulness,  and  the  record  extending  over 
many  years  has  justified  the  choice.  We  avoid 
extremes  of  climate,  have  abundant  food,  pure 
air  and  water,  and  therefore,  have  little  or  no 
sickness.  There  is  an  excellently  arranged  and  equipped 
infirmary,  capable  of  complete  isolation,  and  it  conduces  to 
the  comfort  and  peace  of  mind  of  the  entire  institution  to 
know  that  there  is  such  adequate  provision  for  caring  for 
such  cases  of  sickness  as  may  arise.  We  do  not  show  the 
infirmary  in  this  booklet— it  is  so  little  used  we  hardly 
thought  it  worth  while. 


THF,  DINING  ROOM 


Music. 


UR  work  in  music  is  carried  forward  in  a 
regularly  organized  Conservatory  with  separate 
building,  faculty  and  course  of  study.  A 
Director  gives  his  entire  time  to  teaching  and 
supervising  the  work  of  four  associates.  New 
pianos  throughout,  and  a  new  pipe  organ  constitute  an 
admirable  equipment.  Concerts  and  recitals  by  students, 
teachers,  and  artists  from  a  distance,  aid  in  stimulating 
ambition  and  creating  an  atmosphere  that  is  helpful  to 
students  of  both  college  and  conservatory. 


MUSIC  DIRECTOR'S  STUDIO 


Art. 


School  of  Art  also  has  its  separate  studio, 
teacher  and  assistant,  and  its  course  of 
idy  leading  to  graduation.  Drawing,  Crayon¬ 
s',  painting  in  water,  oils,  and  china, 
sketching,  designing,  and  modeling  all  receive  due 
attention.  The  work  is  exhibited  twice  a  year  and  calls 
forth  general  commendation.  The  course  prepares  either 
for  practical  work  or  for  teaching. 


THE  ART  STUDIO 


Dome&ic  Science  and  Art. 


roviding  for  the  intellectual,  the  physical,  the 
social,  the  spiritual,  and  the  artistic,  we  do  not 
neglect  the  domestic  side  of  a  young  woman’s 
education.  In  a  fully  equipped  and  arranged 
dining  room  and  kitchen  under  the  instruction 
of  a  trained  teacher,  the  class  prepares  and  consumes  a 
regular  meal.  The  course  includes  one  year  for  practical 
home  use  ;  the  second  a  Normal  course  of  two  years,  with 
certificate  for  those  intending  to  teach.  A  thorough 
theoretical,  and  practical  training  in  the  nutritive,  chemical 
and  financial  values  of  foods,  with  their  relative  prepara¬ 
tion  for  families  and  institutions  is  given.  In  Domestic 
Art,  special  attention  is  paid  to  the  drafting  of  garments 
and  dress  making. 


H re. 


STUDENTS'  ROOM 


School  of  Expression. 


he  School  of  Expression  is  fortunate  in  the 
possession  of  a  completely  equipped  hall  with 
scenery  and  stage  settings,  with  a  seating 
capacity  of  300.  Here  an  experienced  teacher 
gives  instruction  in  elocution  and  public  reading, 
and  also  trains  in  dramatic  expression.  Plays  are  given 
at  intervals  throughout  the  year,  and  students  are  given 
practice  in  public  appearances.  A  Normal  department 
prepares  for  teaching,  and  many  of  its  graduates  have 
already  made  good  records  as  teachers.
